Modern Mommyhood and Beyond

How would you know your baby’s gender? The surest way, of course, is to either have an ultrasound at your 20th week of pregnancy and ask your OB-Sonologist, or just wait ’til you pop. But, if you still have got a long way to go and you’re really overly excited to know if it will be pinks or blues, then it wouldn’t hurt if you try out Gender Prediction Tests you can find online.

There are tons of gender prediction tests online but I should warn you – not one of them will guarantee a 99% chance of accuracy. However, I have found one very popular gender prediction test, which according to social media and parenting website forum responses, may have at least a 70% chance of accuracy. It’s the Baking Soda Test.

I haven’t found a clear scientific basis for this test. According to some online parenting websites, what you will be testing is the acid content of the pee (yes, urine). They claim that “the gender of the baby changes some of the hormones in the mother’s body” and some experts say that this is not really the case, but I guess it’s still fun to try.Continue reading

It’s been a long while since I last posted something. There are a lot of things which have changed but here’s what’s going to bring more changes – I am pregnant again with my 5th Kid.

Frankly, I was not very prepared with this pregnancy. I thought I was going to wait out my 35th year and then have a tubal ligation or an early menopause or something. I was okay with the idea of getting pregnant again, but not really this year. This was unplanned. I was taking up 18 units in Education, so I can take the Licensure Exam for Teachers (LET) this September, and then move on to getting a Master’s Degree in Education.

But, surprise, surprise. I was a bit sad at first although I was well aware that babies are blessings – no matter how and when you are blessed with one. I just thought it would be great if I would have another boy. If I were to have another boy, Biboy would have a playmate, and that will bring ‘balance’ to our 2:1 household ratio of girls and boys. LOL. If it’s a girl… well, well, well… We’ll have a 5:2. LOL Continue reading

When any product breaks down at home, you might spend half a day just driving to the store for the proper parts. From fasteners to entire assemblies, these parts can be smartly stocked in your garage for future use as a solution. Avoid any real emergencies by knowing which items to have on hand at all times. These spare parts are the key to a rapid repair.

Nuts and Bolts

Purchase a box that has dividers across every section. Use these dividers to keep your nuts and bolts organized by size or application. Keep all of the common fasteners, such as Allen-head screws and nails, on hand at all times. Add household items into the box as well. Push pins, T-pins and other small products will always be found when they’re organized in this area.

Household Items

Your garage can also be a hidden area for those household items that are always necessary. Fast-setting glue, duct tape and PVC piping are just a few items that you want to have in one garage corner. When there’s a sale at the local home-improvement store, stock up on clearance items. They aren’t perishable, which makes them perfect storage items when products break around the house. A broken pipe in the kitchen will always have a solution with your well-organized garage.

Recreational Parts

If you have recreational vehicles, including a boat, you’ll need some extra space for parts. A boat lift winch replacement part might be necessary at some point, for instance. You don’t want to wait for a supplier to have this part so keep the basics on hand whenever possible.

Car Essentials

Spare parts for your car are crucial to a well-managed household. Keep oil, coolant, transmission fluid and other products stashed away for a rainy day. When maintenance is necessary, you don’t need to drive back and forth to the auto-supply shop. Stocking parts also allows you to troubleshoot certain problems that might otherwise be expensive with an official mechanic. Extra brake pads and lubricant are other items that should be at the top of your shopping list.

Don’t forget to keep basic hand tools organized at a work bench or within a specialized box too. Keep wrenches, screwdrivers and hammers properly organized so that you know where to find them in an emergency. In the end, you’ll be able to solve your problems without a lot of time lost.

When you’ve got someone in your household who constantly require medications and medical attention, it would be wise if you have your own medical cart. If you own a medical cart that doesn’t move effortlessly from one place to another, you may want to buy and install new medical casters. However, to boost efficiency throughout the day, you’ll need proper casters that have specific features.

Caster Options

At most stores, you’ll find swivelling, total locking, rigid, and directional locking casters. If you fully understand how the cart will be used in the environment, the process of selecting ideal casters won’t be a hassle. This is why you must consider:

The cart’s weight

The thresholds

Your traveling speed

If you’ll use the cart frequently in locations that have long hallways, consider buying ridge casters since they always move in a straight line. Swivel casters work best in cluttered spaces because the wheels roll around obstacles with ease. Directional lock casters function like rigid and swivel casters. When the locks aren’t engaged, the wheels swivel on the floor effortlessly. Casters that have the ability to completely lock are often used in heavy traffic environments because a strong and reliable brake is found on each wheel.

Caster Materials

Soft caster wheels can absorb shock very well, so they are usually placed on carts that are used in busy environments. Because these tires have cushioning, they make carts travel more quietly down hallways.

Hard wheels are worth buying because the material rolls easier on various surfaces in medical facilities. However, since these tires are tough and highly durable, they are a bit noisy.

Flat casters produce less friction since the surfaces are flat. Since the wheels aren’t round, the process of maneuvering them can be a difficult task in some situations.

Crown casters should be considered if you need wheels that provide full contact with the floor. Thanks to the unique design, crown wheel casters boost maneuverability dramatically after they are placed on large or small carts.

By installing better casters on a typical cart, productivity will increase because the wheels will glide on the floor with ease. If you need enhanced maneuverability, purchase a new cart that has wider handles.
